Only three operators are behind 8 of every 10 frequencies of DTT occupied illegally in Andalusia The Council Audiovisual of Andalusia requests cooperation institutional to pursue them emissions pirate, that in Andalusia occupy the 66% of the DTT through companies as Data Test, TV national and Covisual. He last report on them televisions local that emit without license in 2016 of the Council Audiovisual of Andalusia (CAA) incorporates an appeal to the cooperation and collaboration institutional for to tackle this phenomenon, common in all Spain and that entails huge damages to the sector in particular and to the citizenship in general. Three quarters of these pirate channels broadcast prohibited content, such as clairvoyance in protected schedule clinics.
This year, the system of monitoring of media of the CAA has identified 124 frequencies without granting administrative where is emit content, a figure that represents the 66% of them channels captured by the Council. In its report, highlights the made of that only three operators (Data Test, TV national and Covisual) are behind the 77% of the frequencies of DTT occupied. For this reason, the Council affects that if he acted on these companies, most of the problem would be resolved.
He CAA recognizes the difficulty of determine and test with security legal it responsibility publishing on these emissions and says that the business of the TDT illegal is led by entities that operate in the field national e even out of Spain. However, it regrets the lack of effective action on the part of administrations with responsibilities to tackle a complex problem and of great magnitude. The 98% of them responsible of them emissions illegal that is recorded in Andalusia are companies and organizations that operate in other regions or of field State, reminds the Council.
Not there is a pressure social to the respect or is has produced the cooperation and the action institutional coordinated required in the joint of the State. Frequently, reminds the Council, through the TDT is broadcast channels that emit via satellite on which is competent the Government central.
In August of this year, the system of tracking of the CAA conducted a sweep that spanned a total of 198 channels of DTT (the Plan national of DTT created in Andalusia 248 channels of television local distributed in 62 demarcations and in 2008 is awarded 189 licenses). Of them 198 channels captured by the Council to make this report, is recorded 124 without granting administrative in which, however, is were emitting content. Granada, with 24 occupied frequencies, is the province with the highest incidence of channels pirate, followed by Cordoba (21), M laga (20) and Almer a (19).
As already indicated, the total of these illegal channels, 32.3% emitted under the heading Data Test; 25% under the name of national TV; and the 20% called Covisual. In all of them spread clinics of esotericism in protected time. In total, focused exclusively on clairvoyance emissions levels represent 74%; religious channels are as follows for relevance in the occupation of frequencies DVB-t (10%). Persists also the broadcasting of content erotic and pornographic (5% of the channels listed). The other channels pirate also emits advertising miracle, advertising exclusively or purely local content (2%).
The CAA has expressed repeated concern about the consequences of the proliferation of illegal channels, since it affects severely an industry economically and socially very relevant, that it has suffered a significant loss of revenue. This situation of fraud makes it impossible to act against the broadcast of contents that infringe the audiovisual legislation.
Already in 2009, the CAA found that 20% of television sets captured by its tracking system were focused on clairvoyance. In September of the year following is recorded 181 channels that were emitting in analog while the so-called "blackout analog" is set in mayo of 2010. 31.4% of these broadcasts consisted of clairvoyance, eroticism and sex contacts advertising programs.
Reorder the market of the TDT
In this report, the Council calls for a reordering of the market of DTT opened with adapt their dimension, currently excessive in his view, ensure its viability, and to guarantee the rights of audience. This request is based on the finding that the television model in open that governs today has led to the development of a local television that, aside from the legality, has become in our country through the occupation of the multiplex is not assigned.
La invasi n de frecuencias libres resulta f cil y poco costoso, y se produce con el fin de emitir contenidos con los que se consiguen importantes y r pidos beneficios econ micos, como es el caso de los programas de esoterismo y paraciencias. En este sentido, advierte de la dimensi n y naturaleza que representa este problema para todas las comunidades aut nomas y que, insiste, exige cooperaci n y coordinaci n institucional en todo el Estado. El Consejo ha remitido este informe para su conocimiento a la Comisi n Nacional de los Mercados y la Competencia (CNMC), el regulador de mbito nacional.
